Kawneer - Leay Wins Environmental Credentials
 Leay,
an approved installer of Kawneer architectural aluminium systems,
has won ISO 14001, the international standard for Environmental
Management Systems.
ISO 14001 monitors a company’s environmental impact in areas such as
waste disposal, air emission and use of water and power. Kawneer won
it three years ago.
Now Leay, which is Kawneer’s longest-established dealer, having
fabricated and installed Kawneer’s curtain walling, windows and
doors for 40 years, has put in place systems to ensure compliance
with ISO 14001 at all levels.
Leay already has the Quality Management System accreditation ISO
9001 and Investors In People status. The ISO 14001 accreditation is
a reflection of the environmental responsibility shared by Leay’s 36
employees.
Jim Hodges, a director of the company, explained: “The procedure to
achieve ISO 14001 was not particularly arduous as we did not have to
make too many changes to our normal working procedures.”
The most expensive change the company had to make to comply with ISO
14001 was replacing two trucks to limit emissions, reduce fuel usage
and change to Euro 4 diesel to meet new legislation requirements
from July 2008.
Leay staff in Maidstone are tasked with being diligent when it comes
to energy monitoring and a “switch-off” policy is in place in the
offices. In addition, as many products as possible are recycled.
“Aluminium is a very valuable commodity and 100% recyclable, and our
waste glass, paper andcardboard are also recycled,” said Mr Hodges.
